in reply to Win32::OLE Outlook and E-mail security update

#########################################################################################

#- -- This program inspects the internet header of all Microsoft Outlook (2002 SP-2)  messages in the user-defined “MyAccount”

#--  directory to determine if the email was sent to myaccount@charter.net   If this is not the case, then it is spam and

#--  the program puts the email in the “Deleted Items” folder.  If the email was sent to myaccount@charter.net place

#-- the email in the MyAccount->Filtered folder.  This program assumes Microsoft Outlook is running.  This program

#-- does not cause the Outlook Security Window to open, so nothing to worry about.
